alortegac Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I have used the Roller Controller and Driving Wheel in CoolCV using an interface (http://www.intellivision.us/intvgames/interface/interface.php) successfully. It works beautifully! Hi, apologies for the late question, I was wondering, do you still need to supply +5v directly to the trackball? TIA.

Ikrananka Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I've been proposed to implement F18A support some months ago but I don't had time yet to check it. Just curious if you've had any further thoughts about adding F18A emulation to Cool CV. I'm sure this would be something quite a lot of people would like to have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Hi, apologies for the late question, I was wondering, do you still need to supply +5v directly to the trackball? TIA. AlYes, you need to connect the CV Power Supply to the Roller Controller just the same as you still need 4 C-Batteries to use the Driving Module with that controller interface.

Appears running on 32 bit......Any ideas on how to fix issue? thanks! How are you loading it? Are you double clicking on the executable? Running it from a command prompt? What parameters are you using if from a command prompt? Dragging a ROM over to it? Which ROM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alortegac Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Thanks for your response. Yes, I am trying to run directly by double clicking on the exec. I then get a black screen. When I drag and drop any rom, it remains black and becomes unresponsive. The only way to close is to end with task manager. See pictures. I have used COOLCV in the past, but never with Win 10 64. thanks again for your help! Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intvdave Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I have used COOLCV in the past, but never with Win 10 64. I just downloaded 6.6 and copied it to a new folder in my Window-64bit system and the game loaded fine. I do have the latest updates applied. I am thinking the issue is not Windows. Could it be an access issue? Maybe it is not creating the config file in the My Documents folder? Would you try right clicking on the executable and select "Run as administrator"?

alortegac Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) Hi, thanks a lot! I tried "run as admin" and did not work. Also I checked for config. is present in my documents and looks all correct . See attached. I will run win updates an check. Does the computer need to have any other apps/drivers loaded for coolcv to work? I such as JAVa, Flash adobe or any other like. Attached all I see in programs. Stella work perfectly first try. K5200 and retroarch worked fine after I fixed some VCS.dll files and video drivers gl. thanks!

Hopefully, Oscar will chime in about the need for supporting programs. I do not think anything extra is needed. Sorry I could not help.

alortegac Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I switch to another computer and COOLCV was running correctly standalone. Once I paired with LAUNCHBOX.....run well few times and then I got the black screen of death again..It does not run anymore., even standalone. Crashing every time. KAT5200 also crashed the same way after running fine few times standalone, I paired it with LAUNCH BOX...it worked few times, then black screen. I reinstalled both emulators from scratched again both still crashing to black screen when starting up.... Any ideas? Any experience with COOLCV and LAUNCH BOX. thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knievel1 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Running (trying) CoolCV on Mac Mojave 10.14.1 - (OpenEMU does fine on regular Colecovision but wanted the SGM) Keep getting this: CoolCV cannot be opened because of a problem Check with the developer to make sure CoolCV works with this version of macOS. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and macOS. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple.

knievel1 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) Tried The Dukes of Hazzard game & Buck Rogers by dragging onto the icon & then setting it up to open with the CoolCV app via "get info". Neither worked. I did get the dialogue box. Exactly how did you get yours running & what version did you use?

I just tried your other method of changing the associated program to CoolCV and it also worked. You've re-installed the emulator as well? I'm using version 0.6.3 Oh and a possibly silly question but you do have the coleco bios on your system correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot find a confi file to check on how is loading or a debugger? Does it conflict with LAUNCHBOX? Any suggestions will be appreciated./ Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas? thanks! Sorry! I don't know what happens. I don't know Launchbox nor I've tested it. If CoolCV already worked in your setup, and doesn't work after installing LaunchBox, and also makes another emulator to fail, then it's pretty probable LaunchBox messed up your display settings.

knievel1 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I've got CoolCV 0.6.6 on Mojave - At the risk of sounding dense, I click on the app to open. Didn't work. Then, I tried dragging a game onto the app icon. Nope. "CoolCV cannot be opened due to a problem" Downloaded CoolCV all zip from thread here -- am I missing something? A install step? Tried dragging Buck Rogers SGM to icon as well as the SGM test ROM. No luck. thanks all for the help.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
